Ovda would not surprise me to replace the A's with 115sq in the agressor role.

Isn't this the same aircraft as three years ago? Is it normal that it's returning for rework after such a short period of time?

REQ: Templin 1990 and Q1 1991

Hi all, Is there anyone out there who visited Tempin in 1990 or before May 1991? I am especially interested to see pictures of Su-17s 20y, 41y and 43y but it would also be great if you could check your pictures if any Su-17 single seaters were M-3 or M-4 types. I am only interested in pictures taken...

It was a little joke by Starman, and quite funny! :-)

Re: 100th ARW gone by the end of 2016?

If the rumour about the onfortunate disbanding of the 351st is correct there is also a little positive note. This is that the 351st was only established in the early 90's. Before that tdy tanker detachments at Fairford, Mildenhall (and Zaragoza?) were in place to provide air refuelling over Europe. ...

Re: Bulgaria will buy new fighter jets

The Italians offered early versions of their Typhoons to Bulgaria or Romania before so that might be a candidate!

Re: Wonsan airfestival (North Korea) 24-26 Sept 2016

This shows gives me mixed feelings. On the one side it is an opportunity to see exotic aircarft you normally never see. On the other hand you are supporting a very nasty devious regime. It feels a bit like visiting a german airshow in 1939..... Ok, I guess also no more Saudi Typhoons or Tornado's t...

Thanks all for the nice comments! :)

@ Frank; you might be right about the Super Scooper name, the results on Google give both the 215 as well as the 415 as the Super Scooper. Anyway, they are surely both Super Scoopers for me! :worship:

Re: "Russian bombers may be based at Turkish "nuclear" Incir

There is always a limit to how far you can push things. Turkey will be testing those limits rather sooner than later, if they aren't doing that already. Erdogan needs to have Gulen extradicted to remain believable in his own country. If that doesn't happen he will have to make a statement. That sta...

I smelled like =censored= and was actually sprayed by the CL-215 but I really enjoyed the fantastic flying skills of the Dromader and CL-215 crews and the great sound of these aircraft. One guy actually thought that he could battle the fire with a bush. Despite the shouting from the nearby road he ...
